I'm all about the AFK-bashing, but this idea does have merit besides humor.
Smugglers should be 'at home' in Cantinas and Starports, maybe they should get some token Dodge bonus (while in those locations) to give it a bit of that feel. I'd prefer something more obvious, like:
If you're in a bar in the city of your residence, or your 'declared favorite cantina' (with a timer, of course, to prevent exploitation) you can have a couple of random low-level thugs spawn to help you out in a fight.
Or maybe you get improved smuggling searches against contraband, because you know the clientele.
What about a 45 second warning before the squad spawns to scan for contrabands, because the 'bartender' tipped you off?
Maybe you should get cheaper drinks while you're there?
How about a different /sit emote for smugglers, a kind of /sprawl like Han used when he was being all cocky and unconcerned?
What about making a couple booths in the back or downstairs (where applicable) smuggler or smuggler-and-client only? Even only a few bars with the 'back room' option would be really neat, where the door wouldn't open unless you were known to the bartender, and you could tell him to let so-and-so in when he showed up.
Of course, there could be drawbacks too...
If you kill someone in your favorite bar, you have to pay up for disposal.
If you have a favorite bar, those Valarian Swoopers that hate your guts know where to find you, and might randomly spawn in while you're having a nice little chat with someone.
If you have a favorite bar, Bounty Hunters could bribe the barkeep for your probable location.
If you get beat up in your favorite bar, your reputation takes a beating too.

i like all the idea. maybe get rid of underworld and replace it with gambling line name (i Have no good ideas for a name too late). I would also like to see slicing gambling machines so that it will increase your chances of winning and that would be especially cool when gambling iwth other players ( if that ever happens). C/cantenaheadshot is just a awesome idea but i would like to see /medcenterheadshot because all those tumblers upest me off even more.

Perhaps we should also get some unarmed moves, since we need that as well, would be a beauty for the triple masters...
anyway I'm all for the /AFKshot, hehehe, killing all those annoying **edit** AFK spammers at theed and Coronet...
